Streaming Media

Streaming Media lets you stream live broadcasts or on-demand media content from the Web. The media is

sent in a continuous stream to your device and is played as it arrives, along with the audio.

The Streaming Media program allows you to play 3GP and MPEG-4 files. It also supports playback of SDP

(Session Description Protocol) files.

Protocol) links to streaming media content then play the content in the Streaming Media program.

2. In the address bar, enter the URL address of the Web page that contains the RTSP link to the desired

*.3gp, *.mp4, or *.sdp file.

3. On the Web page, tap the RTSP link.

4. Streaming Media then automatically opens and starts playing the file. During playback, use the button

controls to play or pause the stream, switch to full-screen mode, rewind, and fast forward.

pause the stream, switch to full-screen mode, rewind, and fast forward.
